I don't have the words for the effigy, but that cross, despite its' age, is magnificent! It just needs a perspex box now to preserve what's left. I wouldn't mind waking up to those views every day.

😂 You reminded me of the “Irish mile”!! Trying to find the Youth Hostel one day, we walked and walked and walked….every time we stopped and asked, we got the same answer, “ just up the way”. We should have crossed some fields, I’m thinking! That’s how we ended up staying that night at the Sisters of Mercy convent school!! Never did find that hostel! 🤷🏼‍♀️ That ancient gorgeousness! I’ve always loved how stones were used on buildings, as fences, etc. Everything was so Natural. What an incredible husband & wife carvings. How sweet, such love. ❤💚

I find it amazing that this site and others you have visited are very old christian churches built on top of features that are definitely pre christian with a much much longer history that the early christians were trying to take over. This site is most likely a hill fort, surrounded by a bank and ditch defensive earth work. The site may have been a pagan ceremonial site as well. All that archaeology was stamped out and made out of reach by the construction of that church.
